If Sound Wave A and Sound Wave B have the same frequency and phase angle, but the peak amplitude of Sound Wave A is higher than that of Sound Wave B:
A) Wave A will sound higher pitched than Wave B
B) Wave B will sound higher pitched than Wave A
C) Wave A will sound louder than Wave B
D) Wave B will sound louder than Wave A

Question

The pitch of a sound wave is determined by its frequency, so if both waves have the same frequency, they will have the same pitch regardless of their amplitude. However, amplitude determines the loudness of a sound, so Wave A, which has a higher amplitude, will sound louder than Wave B.

If Sound Wave a and Sound Wave B Have the Same
